I wonder if this could work with the proposed pattern matching
statement. The current proposal doesn't allow it, but maybe a future
enhancement would make something like this possible:
match the_input:
case "{one} {two} {three}": print("Got three numbers", one, two, three)
You'd need some sort of "matching object" rather than a string there
(strings already have a meaning in the proposal) but maybe something
could be made to work?
